About:
Data Rescue is a comprehensive data recovery solution designed to retrieve lost or deleted files from corrupted or formatted drives. It performs deep scans to recover documents, photos, videos, and other file types from various storage media. The software provides a preview function to verify recoverable data before committing to the restoration process.
Key Features:
  • Deep and quick scanning modes for file retrieval
  • BootDrive recovery for non-starting Macs
  • Cloning feature to create a backup of a failing drive
  • Preview files before recovery to verify integrity
  • Support for RAID recovery
Use Cases:
  • Recovering files after accidental deletion or emptying the Trash
  • Restoring data from a corrupted, formatted, or unmountable drive
  • Creating a clone of a failing drive to prevent data loss
Alternatives:
  • Disk Drill – Disk Drill offers similar recovery features with a more user-friendly interface and additional data protection tools.
  • PhotoRec – PhotoRec is a free, open-source alternative focused on file carving, but it lacks a graphical user interface.
